To observe the changes in hemorheology, endotoxin and TNF ? in blood after hemoperfusion(HP) with adsorbent immobilized polymyxin B (PMB) on sepsis in rats. Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups:LPS+HP+PMB,LPS+HP and LPS. All the rats received intravenously injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS, Escherichia coil O111:B4,1mg/kg). Plasma of the rats in the group of LPS+HP+PMB was passed through a column containing sepharose coated activated charcoal immobilized polymyxin B at the 4th hour after LPS injection. The treated plasma was transfused bak after being mixed with blood cells. In LPS+HP group, the column did not contain immobilized polymyxin B. The animals of LPS group received LPS only. Quantitative endotoxin determination in blood was done with limulus amebocyte lysate test,TNF ? of the plasma assayed with ELISA, and hemorheology parameters were also observed after hemoperfusion. In LPS+HP+PMB group, the concentration of plasma was significantly decreased after hemoperfusion, but it was still significantly higher than the baseline value, and there was a decrease of blood cell ratio after hemoperfusion. The results suggest that specific adsorbent could remove endotoxin in the circulation and improve hemorheology.

Objective To investigate the type of gene mutation and its distribution in patients with thalassemia in Dongguan . Methods 7 845 specimens collected from the patients and individuals with physical examination in our hospital from June 2014 to May 2015 were performed according to the results of routine blood and electrophoresis screening with suspected cases .The speci‐mens with phenotype positive were definitely verified the thalassemia type by using Gap‐PCR and reverse dotblot(RDB) .Results Among 7 845 specimens ,suspected cases of 1 132 cases ,662 specimens were finally diagnosed as α‐thalassemia andβ‐thalassemia , with the thalassemia carrying rate of 8 .44% (662/7 845) ,including 412 cases(5 .25% ) of a‐thalassemia .The most common type ofαα/‐‐SEA ,‐α3 .7/ααaccounted for 61 .17% and 17 .48% inα‐thalassemia ,also detected HKαα/‐‐SEA mixed type in 1 case and 250 cases(3 .19% ) ofβ‐thalassemia cases .The most common type ofβCD41‐42/βN ,βIVS‐Ⅱ‐654/βN ,βCD17/βN accounted for 37 .6% , 23 .2% ,16 .0% inβ‐thalassemia .The α‐thalassemia composite β‐thalassemia for 12 cases(0 .18% ) .Conclusion Dongguan city of Guangdong province is a high incidence area of thalassemia .Premarital examination ,genetic counseling should be strengthened ,and reduce the birth rate of the thalassemia children to improve the quality of the population .

Objective To investigate the synergistic effects of 9-cis-retinoic acid(9-cis-RA) and 8-cl-cAMP on growth inhibition and apoptosis induction in H460 and H292 cell lines of non-small-cell lung cancer(NSCLC). Methods Experimental groups included 9-cis-RA groups(1,5,10 and 20 ?mol/L),8-cl-cAMP groups(5,10,20 and 50 ?mol/L),9-cis-RA(5 and 10 ?mol/L) combined with 8-cl-cAMP(10 ?mol/L) groups and blank control group.The cell growth inhibition rates were detected by trypan blue staining,and the apoptosis of H460 and H292 cells were observed by Hoechst33258 fluorescence microscope,DNA gel electrophoresis and flow cytometer(FCM). Results 9-cis-RA inhibited the growth of H460 cells in a time-and dose-dependent manner,and induced the apoptosis of H460 cells(P

BACKGROUND:Tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), a main cytokine inducing chondrocyte apoptosis of osteoarthritis, plays a regulatory role in the process of osteoarthritis. OBJECTIVE:To compare the rat models of chondrocyte apoptosis induced by different mass concentrations of TNF-α, thus providing theoretical basis for further study on the regulation of drugs on chondrocyte apoptosis. METHODS:Chondrocytes were isolated from the knee cartilage of 4-week-old Sprague-Dawley rats of clean grade by mechanical l col agenase digestion and were then incubated with different mass concentrations of TNF-αto induce apoptosis. The morphology of chondrocytes was observed under inverted phase contrast microscope, cel s were identified using immunohistochemical staining of type II col agen, as wel as the cel viability and apoptosis were detected by MTT and DAPI, respectively. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) In vitro, the cytoplasm of chondrocytes was stained brown-yel ow by using immunohistochemical staining of type II col agen. (2) At 48 hours, the apoptosis rate of chondrocytes induced by 10, 20 and 30μg/L TNF-αwas significantly higher than that of the 0μg/L TNF-α(P<0.01), and the apoptosis rate of chondrocytes induced by 40μg/L TNF-αwas significantly higher than that of the 10μg/L TNF-α(P<0.01). (3) The viability of chondrocytes induced by 10, 20 and 40μg/L TNF-αwas significantly lower than that of the 0μg/L TNF-α(P<0.01). In detail, the viability of chondrocytes induced by 20μg/L TNF-αwas lower than that of the 10μg/L TNF-α(P<0.05);the viability of chondrocytes induced by 40μg/L TNF-αwas significantly lower than that of the 10 and 20μg/L TNF-α(P<0.01, P<0.05). (4) These results suggest that 20μg/L TNF-αcan successful y induce the chondrocyte apoptosis model.

Trichinella spiralis nudix hydrolase (TsNd) gene encoding a 46 kDa protein was
expressed in Escherichia coli and the potential of recombinant TsNd protein (rTsNd) as an
antigen for the serodiagnosis of trichinellosis was investigated by ELISA and compared with
those of ELISA with T. spiralis muscle larval excretory–secretory (ES) antigens. The sensitivity
of both ELISA was 100% (30/30), for the detection of anti-Trichinella IgG antibodies in sera of
the experimentally infected mice, and the specificity of rTsNd-ELISA and ES-ELISA was 100%
(54/54) and 98% (53/54), respectively (P>0.05). Serum anti-Trichinella antibodies were firstly
detected by rTsNd-ELISA at 14 days post infection (dpi), then continued to increase with a
detection rate of 100% at 36 dpi. The anti-Trichinella antibody levels at different times after
infection were statistically different (P<0.05). The results showed that the rTsNd might be a
potential candidate antigen for specific serodiagnosis of trichinellosis. But, it needs to be
further evaluated with sera of the patients with trichinellosis and other helminthiasis.
